The psychology of Christmas flavours and evoking nostalgia
Christmas flavors evoke powerful nostalgic feelings, transporting individuals back to childhood memories. Brands like Bird & Blend, Hotel Chocolat, and Lillypuds capitalize on this by creating products that stimulate the senses and evoke festive cheer. The use of traditional flavors like ginger, cinnamon, and clove, combined with luxurious packaging, enhances the emotional response and encourages consumer purchases. Even typically disliked foods like Brussels sprouts become appealing when paired with festive elements. The strategic use of sensory cues by brands heightens the sense of seasonal relevance and enjoyment.
